The pro: It really works. Your dog will, eventually, never break the fence.
The con: Your dog will, within your perimeter, be "free". Our dogs (2) eventually began to exhibit typical canine behaviors when "free" that they had been trained out of when leashed or accompanied (digging, barking, whining, eating rhodedendrons).
